she's certainly called them out about racist chanting

"Those in the stadium, however, could hear even more. "Rio Ferdinand, we know what you are" ? a chant whose original version ? "Anton Ferdinand, we know what you are" made its implication-freighted debut right after the then-England captain John Terry was accused of calling Ferdinand's brother a "black c**t". And a newer effort, which went: "Build a bonfire, build a bonfire, Put Rio on the top, Put Anton in the middle, And then burn the f**king lot.""

and she recognises that it's not the majority:
"It's only a minority, this Mississippi Burning tribute act. It's always a minority ? isn't it? ? which is enough for some, apparently because you don't have to deal with it unless it's a majority. A minority of one fan threw the banana which John Barnes is shown backheeling in that famous photo, which makes you wonder why the FA ever bothered belatedly addressing the actions of that sort of minority at all."

unless thirsty work has some other time in mind
